Let’s talk first about how much there is to see at Goodwood. As you stroll through the paddocks, yes paddocks of cars, ranging from modern day supercars, old F1s, historics, motorbikes, Le Mans etc etc you’ll hear cars and spluttering to life as they try and make their way to the staging areas then they scream and roar up the hill climb. You’ll also smell the burnt tyres from the numerous burnouts on the hill climb and the petrol from the paddock as the old cars are fired up
Well at the 2008 Goodwood Festival of Speed today, my eyes were opened a little wider. This festival is by far and away the best, most extravagant and breathtaking automotive event I have attended. The cars are numerous, expensive and completely unique. Pretty much all your senses are given a good long tickle at Goodwood.
As a kid, I grew up dreaming of supercars, going to the big motorshows, watching Grand Prix’s…. pretty much everything automotive that Australia lacks (well except for the GP in Melbourne). I guess what I’m trying to say is that the big brown land I call home is very isolated from the rest of the world in terms of automotive toys.
